During a recent appearance on WFAN Radio in New York City on Friday afternoon, WWE Hall Of Famer Jim Ross made a big announcement regarding All Elite Wrestling (AEW).
“Good Ole’ J.R.” revealed that AEW will be premiering a new weekly two-hour television show on a network to-be-named in October.
“[AEW] is overwhelming for me,” Ross said. “To be 67 years old and be anointed the voice of a brand that’s gonna be debuting in October on national television on a major cable network, which can’t be named now. When people hear what network we’re going on, they’re gonna be doubly excited. It’s a network we can all find.”
Ross added, “I think what they’re shooting for is a more athletic presentation. It will hopefully be less eye rolling than the sophomore drama class trying to convince you in a 10 minute promo of anything they’re saying. It’s too long. Our audience can’t handle that.”
